Mental Health Week Video Campaign

Create a Video - What Makes Me Strong?

In the spirit of this year’s theme ‘Celebrating Our Strengths’, we are inviting Territorians to create a short video sharing what things in your life or community help keep you strong. 

We welcome people of all ages from all walks of life to join in this campaign!

We have deep and wonderful strengths in all of our communities, where we find peace, support, happiness, and creativity. It is these strengths, no matter how big or small, that sustain us in life – especially through our difficult times.

By sharing with one another, we show that we are not alone, and we remind one another of the many ways we can look after our mental health and keep ourselves strong.

We invite individuals, families, communities, workplace or other teams, to pick up their smart phones and share the things that help them stay strong. Get creative and have some fun! These short videos will be shared on our YouTube channel and Facebook page throughout the next few months and during Mental Health Week in October. 

Guidelines for creating your video

  1. Language must be respectful and positive
  2. All videos should be 60 seconds or less
  3. Video can be shot on an iphone or another smart phone
  4. Film in landscape view so that all videos we receive have a consistent format
    5. Sound quality is best if the person is speaking into or close to the phone, particularly if filming outside. When someone is talking, please make sure there is minimum background noise (wind, traffic, other voices).
    6. Start by briefly introducing yourself and state where you live
    7. Have a couple of tries and pick the best one to send

How to submit your video

Once you have completed your video you can submit it below in the Upload Video section.

We will review the video, and make sure it meets all of the above guidelines. If it does, we will upload it to our public YouTube channel: Northern Territory Mental Health Coalition – YouTube.
